The Non-Discriminatory Organ Donor Bill

T
he founders of our Commonwealth, with their quill pens and parchment,
probably never imagined that information, the soul of democracy, could
move at the speed of light. I hope you will use this online office to
share your opinions, ask questions, look for answers, and find out more
about the work I do to further our common causes across our district and
across Massachusetts. Our strength in this state has always been our
people – with this website I hope to bring you into the State House with
me, increasing transparency, conversation, and access so that you may
always have an open door to my office.

It is my privilege to serve you in the State Senate, and I hope this
website will keep our lines of communication open and our partnership
strong.

I
am writing regarding the recent book reductions made at the Franklin
County Law Library in Greenfield. Space allocated for the Law Library
within the new courthouse was smaller than the library area in the old
Franklin County Court House and required the elimination of many volumes
that had previously been in circulation. While I understand that the
evaluation of which materials should be maintained was made in
accordance with the Trial Courts written policies and procedures, I
write today to respecfully request that the Trial Court maintain a
broader set of books and materials on a regional basis including those
that may appear to supply only a historical perspective on the current
state of the law.

BOSTON-Today,
Senate President Stan Rosenberg (D-Amherst) announced the release of
the Senate Committee on Ways & Means’ Fiscal Year 2018 budget
recommendations with strong investments in education from early
childhood through college. These critical funding areas will continue to
put the next generation of leaders and learners on a path to success in
the 21st century.

“The Fiscal 2018 recommendations reaffirm the Senate’s vision of Kids
First, which will build strong, healthy, resilient kids who grow up to
become productive adults that contribute to our Commonwealth,” said
Senate President Rosenberg. “With the right policies and resources in
place, our route to shared prosperity opens up with strong, smart, and
strategic investments in our children.”

The
ceremony at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is
among Obama’s first public appearances since leaving office. His speech
Sunday will come just days after U.S. House Republicans passed a bill
that would dismantle much of his signature health care law.

BOSTON
(May 6, 2017) — Senate President Stan Rosenberg (D-Amherst) received
the President’s Award for his distinguished service on behalf of
the arts across the Commonwealth from Historic Deerfield at an
annual awards dinner hosted by the museum.

"Creative, vibrant and strong cities enriched by the arts are critical to ensuring a strong economic future for our Commonwealth,” said Senate President Rosenberg.
“I am honored to accept this award and believe it is critical that
we continue to invest in and grow this vital industry and I will
continue to be a strong advocate for state and federal resources to
boost our creative economy.”

Boston—Senate President Stan Rosenberg (D-Amherst) today gave remarks in support of the vital contributions immigrants make in cities and towns throughout the Commonwealth at the 21st Annual Immigrants’ Day at the State House.

“In a day and age when immigrants are stigmatized, it's crucial to
recognize the immeasurable courage and determination that it takes to
leave everything behind for the uncertainty of a better life,” said
Senate President Rosenberg. “Massachusetts is proud to be a welcoming
place for our immigrants and strives to be a shining beacon for all
hoping to follow the American dream.”

The Senate adopted a resolution in February opposing President
Trump’s executive order restricting travel for immigrants and refugees
from majority-Muslim countries.
